Came with my 73 last summer. Was not hooked up, so I just removed it. I think it was installed when the car was pretty new. Just a little 70's history.

I have one ... wanna buy it?

Saw one at one of those expensive Porsche home garage sellers labeled "NOS 356 CDI". Don't know if it was the truth or not.

Don't want the one I have! Don't think it could be NOS. It was built in Colorado! Don't think there is a colorado Germany !!!

of course you do father time....

IIRC those were one of the first aftermarket CDI's that you could use to replace a toasted Bosch CDI.

I had one too, mine had a switch, cd or standard
must have been a newer model

What does being manufactured in Colorado have to do with whether or not it's NOS?
I've got T-shirts that are NOS .............

slits is confused with NOS versus OEM, like was with M versus A

yea, i have one too (in the junk in the basement) and has the CD/no-CD switch. used it on the '71 super beetle. i wonder if it made any difference.

Yep! Had one just like it in the early 80's with a by-pass switch. Never notice a differance. Had simple wireing, Like across the coil or something.

WOW!

I had forgotten about those things. I built one (from a kit) in 1972--and I was living in Colorado at the time
